• SQL Server Help with Page Breaks and large amount of text...

  What have folks here done with large amounts of text in a table with regard to page breaks I've found that the page break happens before the large block of text starts regardless of where it starts on the page. Even if there is 3/4 of the page empty it will always page break. Here's an example. To illustrate, I'm just pulling back the Article Title and the Article Details. I made the table background dark just so to distinguish it from the rest of the page. http://www.1uvaknd.com/pagebreaktest.pdf This is in VS2003 preview mode. Take a look at page 2. The page size is huge in comparison with the other pages. http://www.1uvaknd.com/pag ...Show All

• Visual Studio Stability of Modeling API

  Hi, We are looking into the possibilities of generating DSL models from other DSL models. We see two obvious options for this. Read the XML model file and create the generated XML model file ourselves using XML. This means that we are dedenpent on the format of the XML files for the models. Read the model file using the modeling API and create the generated DSL model using the modeling API. This means that we are dependent on the modeling API. The question is what the status of the XML format and the modeling API is. Which one(s) is going to be officially documented Which one is expected to be the most stable How m ...Show All

• Visual C++ is old THISFILE DEBUG headers at top of CPP files still necessary under VS2005?

  VS2003 scattered the following lines at the top of CPP files .. are they still necessary thanks #ifdef _DEBUG #undef THIS_FILE static char THIS_FILE [] = __FILE__ ; #define new DEBUG_NEW #endif a No they are not. This is a lelict from the old VC6 compiler. It wasn't able to collect often used string constants to one reference only. So this trick was used to prevent a code to explode when a lot of new statements and other debugging features of the MFC are used (DEBUG_NEW). The new compiler can collect equal string constants and reduce them that ...Show All
